I Don't Get It - The Hooker Stiffers Want to Journey to the Center of Ted's Obama-Mind? Yet, Jesse Jackson Threatened to Geld the Chap

Tim McCarthy IS the U.S. Secret Service. The Hooker Stiffers and Ted Nugent Inquisition another thing entirely.


The Father of the Hot Mic - Rev. Jesse Jackson has been eclipsed by the younger, more vigorous and elocutionally challenged Rev. Crown Heights Al Sharpton.

Old Hot Mic Jackson is an adept mentor to VP Joe (BFD) Biden and President Bark . . .Barack ("Be Patient Vlad") Obama.

Ted Nugent is a guitar-hero whose hot-licks has been lost on chicks for decades. The guy can pull some strings - guitar and power-bow. Ted Nugent, like the great Hank Williams, Jr., is on the Fightin'Side of Rachel Maddow and the lisping lightweights on MSNBC. Ted's Ok.

He was not Hot Mic'd but spoke, maybe a bit too strongly, about his low regard for the President and opined that were the President to somehow eke out a re-turn gig as Chief Executive, Ted might be imprisoned, or even dead. Millions of Catholics also worry about going to the Joint for the Faith. Death? Quid nunc?"

Nevertheless the Secret Service has been sic'd on Ted Nugent. The St. Viator Alum and Amboy Dukes frontman on Journey to the Center of Your Mind gets the hot lights by the I Forgot My Wallet guys.

I personally know a score of Secret Service agents and hold them in the highest regard, One, Tim McCarthy*, sacrficed himself in the line of duty and is one of only four agents to do so while guarding the President.

Tim McCarthy and most agents go above and beyond the call of duty. The current handful in the news are a disgrace. Going to a hooker, let alone stiffing one?

The Secret Service are now grilling Ted Nugent, but they gave Rev. Jesse Jackson a pass?

He actually threatened, then Presidential Candidate Barack Obama with castration over a hot microphone.

WASHINGTON - In a vulgar tirade caught on tape by Fox News, the Rev. Jesse Jackson said he wanted to "cut his [Barack Obama's] nuts out" and he accused the fellow Chicagoan of "talking down to black folks" by giving moral lectures to African-Americans, source said Jackson's shocking quotes were picked up by a hot mic before an interview on health care in Fox's Chicago studio last Sunday


No Ted Nugent, Jesse be. Diferent Strokes for Different Folks!

I get it. We all do . . .good and hard.

Secret Service Chalk Talk: Let's Avoid Another Altoona Melt- No Bowling in Martha's Vineyard


All the signs suggest that Obama is in immediate danger of a rabbit attack. It would ruin what's left of his presidency.A Rabbit? Nay, a bowling alley could be President Obama's Altoona Redux; far worse Kass Old Man. I expect the heroic agents of the Secret Service anticipate every possible horror. Thus

Secret Service Field Agent Supervisor Terry Mueller's-Martha's Vineyard Chalk Talk last week:

Agents,Grab a knee - Anticipate, Agents, Vigilance and Courtesy always, but anticipate. Tim McCarthy's split second spread eagle save President Reagan. McCarthy anticipated. He watched, but it was his anticipation that did the trick.

Renegade and Renaissance and the kids are enjoying Presidential Vacation # 61 (on the books)at Blue Heron Farm in Martha's Vineyard.

In 2008, on his own hook Renegade had near tragic event in Altoona PA. Watch carefully:



It makes a grown man shudder. He was a candidate then, but Renegade is the President Now.

We are the only shield he has.

Anticipate! Do not allow Renegade to be invited to, flattered, or challenged into any of the fine Brunswick equipped Family Amusement Centers on any of the Cape Cod or adjacent landfall. Quash any and all suggestions to visit

Leary Family Amusements in Falmouth; Ryan's Family Amusements in Buzzard's Bay; Bowlmor in Mattpoisett and for the Love of God avoid Oak Bluffs' historic bowling alley and the handy Brunswick Cinebowl in Derry City.

Anticipate! If Presidential fiat overwhelms you, agents, stand down now. Take your time coming and go on vacation.

Worst case - throw yourself between the President's bowling ball and the gutter. Tim McCarthy would do no less.

Be careful, be vigilant and for God's sake anticipate. Let's all get home to our families and above all keep the President off of cable news.

Any questions?

American Hero Tim McCarthy Would Be A Great Chicago Police Leader


The Chicago Tribune thinks that Jody Weis was 'right man at the right time' for Chicago Police Department.

Like its choice of Dewey over Truman, the editorial board at the Trib couldn't find a boxcar at 59th & Kostner, or a trucking outfit between Ashland and Halsted.

I live among many police officer ( CPD, County and Federal) and universally they thought the Weis Years were unqualified disasters.

Interim Superintendent Terry Hillard,CPD (ret.) is as universally admired as Jogy Weis is scorned.

Mayor Emanuel would do well to appoint an unclouted hero - Orland Park Police Chief Tim McCarthy would be ideal.

He comes from a Chicago police family and respects the culture. Tim McCarthy runs to the gunfire and has the wounds to attest that fact.




McCarthy is credited with saving the life of President Ronald Reagan. McCarthy has executive experience and political finesse.

If Rahm Emanuel is anywhere near as smart as the media attest him to be, he will appoint an American hero as his Superintendent of Chicago Police.

One Day March 30, 1981- President Reagan Saved By Tim McCarthy: Leo '67



Yesterday marked the 100th Birthday celebration of President Ronald Reagan. I did not vote for President Reagan, twice, but I thought that he was a personally wonderful guy and an absolutely great politician. In fact, I believe that President Obama has many of Ronald Reagan's attributes - good rhetorical skills, a solid presence and wonderful smile. The only attributes that seem to be missing from President Obama are executive experience and personal warmth. Ronald Reagan was a very warm guy and he exuded his love of people. I did not vote for President Obama, either.

A Leo High School wrestler from the Class of 1967, Tim McCarthy* of St. Denis Parish, saved the life President Reagan.



This is from a CBS Interview with Tim McCarthy in 2004.

Video of the event shows McCarthy throwing himself in front of the president; he was shot in the right chest. Syler pointed out that "it would seem that one's natural reaction would be to duck. And yet, you jumped in front of the president. Was that as a result of the training you go through?"

McCarthy replied: "That's exactly right. If you saw the big picture out there, a lot of people – police officers, military -- were ducking and looking for cover. That's the training that they received. They did exactly what they should have done.The day he was leaving the hospital with his wife and a couple of his children, the family got word that the president would like to see them. Mrs. Reagan also was there.

"We had a nice visit," McCarthy recalled. "The president was commenting about he was going to miss springtime in Washington, the Cherry Blossom Festival. We had a real nice conversation. My kids were young, 2 and 4, getting restless. They didn't understand the significance of any of this. I was just about to walk out the door. We'd said our goodbyes. I was right at the door.

"He said, 'Tim, hold on a minute. Wait a minute. Listen. It was McCarthy, Reagan, (Washington police officer Tom) Delehanty, (White House press officer Jim) Brady. What the hell did this guy have against the Irish?' You have to wonder if the leader of the free world could already maintain a perspective on this, as serious and critical as it was, he certainly had gotten over it already, and it was a great example for me to get beyond this and move on."

On June 10, 2004, the day before Mr. Reagan's funeral, McCarthy had the opportunity to visit Mrs. Reagan.

"She looked great, under a great deal of stress, as you can imagine," said McCarthy, though he declined to give details about their private conversation.

"We talked about the president quite a bit," he said. "We talked about the fact that, over the last number of years, she has been there almost day and night with the president, and what it was like.


Tim McCarthy - American Hero.

Timothy J. McCarthy (born June 20, 1949) is the current police chief of Orland Park, Illinois and a former member of the United States Secret Service.[1] He is most famous for turning into the line of fire, shielding President Ronald Reagan and being wounded by one of John Hinckley, Jr.'s .22 caliber bullets in the 1981 Reagan assassination attempt.[2][3] Surgeons at George Washington University Hospital successfully removed the round from McCarthy's abdomen, and he fully recovered. McCarthy received the NCAA Award of Valor in 1982[4] in recognition of his bravery.

After Hinckley began to fire, McCarthy deliberately put himself in the line of fire and spread his body in front of Reagan to make himself a target.[3] Although all Secret Service agents are trained to take a bullet for the President, only four have actually done so. Besides McCarthy, officer Leslie Coffelt of the Secret Service Uniformed Division was killed during the 1950 Truman assassination attempt, the others, Donald Birdzell and Joseph Downs, were also shot during the Blair House attack of 1950.

McCarthy graduated from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign in 1971 with a Bachelor of Science degree in finance and joined the United States Secret Service shortly thereafter.

His career included eight years assigned to the Presidential Protective Division in Washington D.C. and fourteen years as a criminal investigator in Chicago. McCarthy was the Special Agent in Charge of the Secret Service Chicago Division from 1989 until his retirement in October 1993.

McCarthy has served as Chief of the Orland Park Police Department since May 1994, and, in 1997, he unsuccessfully ran for Illinois Secretary of State as a Democrat.[5] In 1999, he earned a Master of Science degree in criminal/social justice from Lewis University in Romeoville, Illinois.

He is married and has three children.

McCarthy also played football at University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and is currently Orland Park Police Chief.
